I can't find any wire with shield here, so I decided to use SATA cable for RST in order to protect RST line from electromagnetic interference cased by coils :

It is a SATA cable which I cut the half of it to make it a little thinner, then I ground the one end of bare wire of it.

It was just good only for two times of boots and then my homemade glitch board died!

I changed the sata cable to a regular wire and used a new homemade glitch board, luckily I have no problem at the moment.

Any way I am curious what was wrong with such a usage of sata cable?

Is there any other kinds of wire with shield which can I use it for this purpose?
